The base of the clip has a lip which inserts over an edge of the plate. A loop joins the base and extends around the tube. A leg joins the other end of the loop and has a lip which is inserted over an opposite edge of the plate. A fastener secures the first and second ends of the loop to each other to grip the tube and hold the lips in gripping engagement with the edges of the plate.
